Intended Use
The BioTrace Medical Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead is indicated for use in temporary intracardiac pacing for a maximum of seven (7) days and is designed to transmit an electrical signal from an external pulse generator to the heart or from the heart to a monitoring device.
Device Description
The BioTrace Medical Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead is designed for temporary transvenous intracardiac pacing. The lead provides access to the right ventricle via either the femoral vein, subclavian vein or the internal jugular vein approach and may be shaped near the distal end to facilitate delivery. It is a radiopaque, polymeric lead featuring a balloon, active fixation, bipolar electrodes and a soft tip.
More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms. The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and clinical performance of a temporary pacing lead.

Yes
The device is used for temporary intracardiac pacing to transmit electrical signals to the heart, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device is a temporary pacing lead designed to transmit an electrical signal for pacing or monitoring, but its primary function as described in the "Intended Use" and "Device Description" is for temporary pacing. While it can transmit signals to a monitoring device, this is a secondary function to its role as a pacing lead, which is a therapeutic intervention, not solely diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, implantable pacing lead with hardware components (balloon, active fixation, bipolar electrodes, soft tip). It is not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "temporary intracardiac pacing" and is designed to "transmit an electrical signal from an external pulse generator to the heart or from the heart to a monitoring device." This involves direct interaction with the patient's body and electrical signals related to heart function.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical lead designed for insertion into the body via veins to reach the heart. It mentions features like a balloon, active fixation, and electrodes, all indicative of an invasive medical device used for treatment or monitoring within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of bodily specimens.

Therefore, the BioTrace Medical Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead is an invasive medical device used for temporary cardiac pacing, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Tempo® Study was a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single arm study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tempo® Temporary Pacing Lead in patients requiring temporary cardiac pacing for transcatheter aortic valve replacement, balloon aortic valvuloplasty or electrophysiology (EP) procedures. Twenty five (25) patients were enrolled in two centers. The device was evaluated for safety (freedom from pericardial effusion requiring intervention and/or echocardiographic evidence of tamponade) and technical feasibility (intracardiac delivery and pace capture). Additional evaluations included pace capture thresholds (PCT), success of rapid pacing, and incidence of dislodgement or sustained ventricular arrhythmias (>30 seconds). Transthoracic echocardiograms were obtained at baseline and 24 hours after lead removal. Follow up was to 30 days.

The safety endpoint was met in all patients (100%) with no device-related adverse events. The technical feasibility endpoint was met in 23 patients (92%). No patient had a sustained ventricular arrhythmia or lead dislodgement. Average final procedural PCT was 0.7±0.5 mA. Rapid pacing was successful in all cases, with no loss of pace capture. In 5 patients the lead was successfully used postprocedure.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Safety endpoint met in 100% of patients.
Technical feasibility endpoint met in 92% of patients.
Average final procedural PCT was 0.7±0.5 mA.

Technological Comparison:

For the purpose of demonstrating the substantial equivalence of the Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead in this 510(k), BioTrace Medical has selected the Medtronic Temporary Transvenous Pacing Lead System (Model 6416), #K042190. The Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead was assessed for substantial equivalence relative to the legally marketed predicate device with respect to intended use, indications for use, and technological characteristics as summarized below.

    • Bond Joint Strength

    • Fatigue Resistance

    • Corrosion Resistance

    • Simulated Use

    • Electrical Resistance

  • Electrical Safety Testing ●
  • Packaging Validation

    • A Implantation
    • Hemocompatibility

    • Hemolysis

    • Complement Activation

    • In Vivo Thrombogenicity

    • Pyrogenicity

  • Clinical Study:

The Tempo® Study was a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single arm study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tempo® Temporary Pacing Lead in patients requiring temporary cardiac pacing for transcatheter aortic valve replacement, balloon aortic valvuloplasty or electrophysiology (EP) procedures. Twenty five (25) patients were enrolled in two centers. The device was evaluated for safety (freedom from pericardial effusion requiring intervention and/or echocardiographic evidence of tamponade) and technical feasibility (intracardiac

delivery and pace capture). Additional evaluations included pace capture thresholds (PCT), success of rapid pacing, and incidence of dislodgement or sustained ventricular arrhythmias (>30 seconds). Transthoracic echocardiograms were obtained at baseline and 24 hours after lead removal. Follow up was to 30 days.

The safety endpoint was met in all patients (100%) with no device-related adverse events. The technical feasibility endpoint was met in 23 patients (92%). No patient had a sustained ventricular arrhythmia or lead dislodgement. Average final procedural PCT was 0.7±0.5 mA. Rapid pacing was successful in all cases, with no loss of pace capture. In 5 patients the lead was successfully used postprocedure.

This first-in-human study demonstrates that the Tempo Lead is safe and effective for temporary cardiac pacing.

The results from these tests and studies demonstrate that the technological and performance characteristics of the subject Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead are adequate for its intended use and ensure the subject device can perform in a manner equivalent to devices currently on the market with the same intended use.

Conclusion: The data and information presented within this submission (including in vitro bench, in vivo animal testing and the clinical study) support a determination of substantial equivalence of the Tempo Temporary Pacing Lead to marketed temporary pacing leads.
